    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I am also not employed at This Side of Paradise Pets. I am not paid hourly, I am paid by my snakes that I sell. I get 75% commission and he gets 25%. We are partners. He even refers to us as a team and views the shop as both of ours. He had not touched a snake until four weeks ago when I brought Tallulah in to show him. He is learning while I teach him. And he now has two snakes of his own. A normal female and a KingPin male. His wife bought a Columbian Rainbow Boa I had there to sell. They caught the snake fever and have me and only me to thank for it. They had not the slightest clue what to do with snakes. I have paved them a path and made them ready to own snakes. They are always asking me questions and they have been taking my advice. They are thoroughly enjoying every second of it. I don't see the nagativity in that, but okay.

Here is how they list you. BTW I sent a link to this thread to the email address shown.

Lol again making assumptions. Once again, I DID NOT TALK TO THE BREEDER PERSONALLY. she was a high yellow. Know anyone working with the high yellow gene in new england two years ago?
 
I just got to the shop and Andy told me that someone here contacted him. He told me to tell you exactly what I already said. We are getting the test done with the snake that was in direct contact with Layla.
In the meantime, yes I am selling the snakes that are AT THE SHOP and have never been closer than a 30 minute drive from my personal collection. They were delivered to the shop and have been here the whole time.
 
And I also never purchased the gravid boa. I rehabbed her her, SHE WAS NEVER MINE, took her to the vet to then find out she was gravid, she was half dead and had to be on fluids and antibiotics, ultrasound showed that all the babies were dead. When she popped out 24 alive babies two weeks early i was beside myself. That boa is now in a new home.
 
I just contacted Woodstock Veterinary Clinic who sees snakes. They are getting back to me tomorrow on the price of the blood test, they are going to draw the blood and send it off to a lab for results.

Sorry, I just don't believe you.

But YOU are going back and forth.
 
And Jen that has no relevance. Like for real. I asked if you knew anyone working with High Yellows. Not whether it was a gene or not. Excuse me while I get slammed for every little word i say even if it has no relevance whatsoever to this.
 
I have one boa. Again. The boa i kept that was born here. In May 2014. She has never been in the same room as dexter. Dexter was in direct contact with layla. I dont see the reason for pricking the blood from Jezebel.

1. It was July 2013. Not 2 years ago.

2. No one assumed anything. You yourself stated "I had gotten in contact with them":

Do you EVER keep your story straight?

It is relevant. Since it is not a gene, no one would be "working with them". Thus your question using that as an attempt to narrow down the breeder becomes null.

Once again for you hard-of-reading folk

I. AM. GETTING. A. BLOOD. TEST. DONE.

You FINALLY contacted someone ON SUNDAY, only because others have the courage to call you out on your husbandry/selling practices. If you had EVER suspected IBD for one second, you should have immediately stopped buying and selling and sought professional opinions.


mjcballpythons said:
Jen, yesI have admitted mistakes. I admitted fault for misusing the word "viral," claiming IBD when I have no idea what it was, making assumptions, and not getting a necropsy. I talked to the shop owner I work with and we are going to get a blood test done on the snake that was in direct contact with the snake that died. It will happen, just wait. I need to find someone to do it. .

I did it to shut you people up. Because you're irritating me.i know its pointkess and i know what the results will be. So thank you all for wasting my money. But at least everything in this thread will be false and there will be no reason for it to be here. And that part will be worth it.
